Does #YYJ need a FreelanceCamp?

Hi Freelancers and wannabe freelancers in Victoria and Vancouver Island.

We’re trying to find out if there’s enough interest in a freelancecamp in our community – and would love to have your feedback.

Not sure what a freelancecamp is? Part education session, part networking session, part group therapy.

If you’re currently a freelancer, or think you might enjoy the life of working from home, being your own boss, not showering for days, stressing over incoming deadlines and cheques that seem to arrive weeks/months after they were sent – this might be a great opportunity to meet people that think just like you do.

Definition of a freelancer: A person who has broken away from the corporate 9-5 so they can enjoy the freedom and autonomy of working from home from 6am – 10pm. Or more. 🙂

We learned about freelancecamp last year, when the folks at the NetworkHub hosted it in Vancouver.

It. Was. Awesome.

200 likeminded freelancers, from every niche market you can think of, under one roof, enjoying guidance and lifelearnings from other freelancers that have “been there, done that” and managed to make a moderate success for themselves.

$10, including a delicious lunch and freelance-grade coffee (aka rocketfuel)
